This bridal wreath is an example of a popular style from the late 1930s called a ‘Hollywood halo’. The orange-blossom flowers are made from moulded composition, while the halo itself is made from translucent celluloid and bordered with faux pearls. The name of the design implies cinematic glamour, with the wreath suggesting a spotlight upon the bride’s face. Dramatic wreaths and accessories were usually worn with relatively simple dresses, while extravagant gowns often have more understated accessories.
